Orio Studios specializes in creative design solutions, including illustration, animation, motion graphics, and surface pattern design. We combine artistic innovation with technical expertise to deliver visually compelling projects.
I’m Orla, a Designer and Maker based in Galway. From my roots in the technical world of textile design management to the precision of digital motion graphics, I founded Orio Studios to bring a hands-on, craft-driven approach to modern design. Backed by 7 Adobe Certified Professional credentials, I combine artistic heritage with technical expertise to create visual stories with absolute precision and impact.
Professional Profile
My journey in design began on the factory floor and in the print room, where I learned that great work is built on technical discipline and a maker’s hands-on touch. From managing large-scale textile design collections to mastering digital motion, I have always been driven by the "how" as much as the "why."
Today, as a multi-disciplinary designer and studio owner, I bridge the gap between artistic heritage and modern technology. While I hold 7 Adobe Certified Professional credentials, my real value lies in my ability to take a complex business brief and transform it into a cohesive visual story—one that is technically flawless, strategically sound, and full of life.
Professional Journey
With years of experience as a Design Manager in a Dublin-based textile design firm, I collaborated with national and international clients. Additionally, I founded Orio Studios to focus on high-end branding and motion graphics.
